Lying about your Golf Handicapp isn't cheating?

in this context no.

Blair Rodman explained it better than I ever could so I'll quote him:


[/ QUOTE ]

Blair Rodman goes into great detail about what HE finds acceptable in hustling and cheating on a golf course. How does that carry over to everyone else?

Because he does it a lot doesn't make it right. Let's say I skip all the middle garbage (of a game with supposed friends wherein I steal (ahem, I mean hustle) their money) and just get straight to the point and pull out a gun and take their money. Let's say I do this for a livin and find it fair and reasonable and I do it at high stakes. Does that make my morale code applicable to everyone else who might attempt armed robbery?

Why do so many think that blatant theft cloaked in a very basic subterfuge of a "good hustle" is somehow morally acceptable when they find armed robbery reprehensible?
